New Video, And, A Challenge...

Hey y'all. Just put out a new video, so here:

It will clarify that the TRX-4M is really waterproof.
But, that's not really the reason I posted this thread. I wanted to challenge someone to make a TRX-6M. So, for whoever wants to do it, start a build thread!

Gotta buy your driver some scuba gear! (and new boots too!)

You can buy a TRX6M chassis from Aliexpess.

I know. But I wanna see someone custom make one.

Would be nearly impossible to make an axle for the middle.

Just add a dead axle on the end. He never said it must be 6 wheel drive.

I actually seen 1:1 vehicles tgat are 6x6 and only one axle had power.

Ooh! I’m in! Takes a long time, but sounds really cool. Thanks for the idea!! Gonna be cool! I’ve always wanted a 6x6! Watch Traxxas come out with it a week after I finish it lol.

It’s an fms chassis. They’ll make parts. He didn’t say it had to be all Traxxas parts

Nah I'm not talking about the FMS trucks. There's an exact TRX4m replica on Ali. If I remember I'll grab a link tonight.

If I get some money I might be able to make that happen...
It would take so effort, though. It also wouldn't be identical, but it would be an 8x8.

The Mann, Tatra, Mercedes and even the Stewart & Stevenson trucks are just AWESOME in action!!!
Trail trucks are cool... but these trucks MAKE the trails.
I think I saw one of these style trucks built by a company that builds $18,000 r/c's
I'd buy a real one first at that price!

I'd love to see a reasonable $ version of these trucks!
